Reject me-if you need for having an anniversity of my birth date, but I turned fifty seven years of age today.

I AM STILL ALIVE!!

Congrats, mate. :)

Despite being very similar to German haben Latin habere is not cognate with Germanic haben/have/ha(va) etc. It is however cognate with geben/give/giva etc.

Happy Birthday, DirtDawg.  I hope it's all your want it to be and more.

Well, it's a day late but Happy Birthday!  Hope it was great.

Here's some music I hope you will enjoy:




Awesome!

How did you know that Bugs is an old mate of mine from the eighties?



Oh. Nevermind. I probably mentioned it a few too many times, right?

You mentioned it at least once and I listened to you.  I listened to several of Bug's songs to hear what I thought you might enjoy hearing and I picked this partly because it was older and he was barefoot and also the sound was pretty clear.  I'm glad that you liked it.

Thanks, but it's definitely not perfect.

The mother of my grandma lived up to 94 years of age. She (they) had a walnut tree in their garden and it's said she ate two walnuts a day.

Um, every time I eat a walnut myself I think of that.. in a sort correlation-wise-way (old age/sharp till the end/walnuts).

But?

I would not be able to limit myself to two walnuts a day.

I can.. and that's about the amount (two a day) of walnuts I eat myself. Top food (-notch/drawer), I reckon.. but ja, in moderation.

I'm allergic to walnuts.  Runs in the family.  So were my grandparents who died this year at 94 and 95.
